This app allows you to keep your screen on *only* when debugging is active on the device over Wifi (on Android 11) or USB.
It switches to the previously set display timeout when the device is unplugged or plugged into a wall socket.

: To monitor debugging notifications
WRITE_SETTINGS
to change the display timeout setting to maximum allowed (30 minutes on most devices)
INTERNET
for Crashlytics (crash reports)
This application is open-source under the Apache license and it is easy to verify that the build here is the same as the one created through GitHub Actions.
GitHub

Note: Android GO phones are not supported because there's no way to get Notification Access on Android GO Edition.
DISCLAIMER: Please be careful on OLED screens as keeping the screen awake for long periods of time could cause burn-in.

What's New with Awake for Debug 2.1

After 2 years of abandonment and the banishment of the implicit ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED from background in API 26, this nifty app returns with support for the magic of wireless debugging on Android 11 and a newfound interest in debugging notifications to find out if debugging is active on the device. 🎉
- Fixed incorrect display timeout in UI when opening the app sometimes
